Starting auto 5 gal watering help

Posted this somewhere else copy and pasted here for better chance to be seen..

Hey pretty new to autoflowers, currently have 10 in a 2.5 x5 foot room... I feel like I don't water enough, I'm 8 days from sprout and every 36 hrs or so I come back and my soil is dry first three or so inches will be like dust, am I not watering enough? I only give maybe 4 fl oz of water when I do water

You have 10 seedlings, each in a five gallon pot, in a 2.5'x5' room and you're giving 4 oz. water to each, every 36 hrs. Is this correct? Also, I forget the member who always says, "if there's no pictures, it didn't happen."

Yes sir I got a picture

you need to at least be giving a couple of litres just to wet and activate all the soil but 5 gallons when the plants are bigger with more roots and drinking more I'd be giving 3 litre but depends on how hot temps ate etc

Temps got a little low last night down t 52 F but normally stay between 68&75

give em two litres when they need watering next this will wet most of the soil so bacteria can grow then I'd water half a litre round the base of the plant when next need water gradually increasing to 3 litre when they and roots are bug enough usually when a foot tall
